DELROY WILSON Vinilo y CD

Review: The legendary Fatman is back with another must-have 10" release featuring Don Carlos's iconic vocal roots classic from 1980. The A-side includes the full 12" disco mix, highlighted by Robbie Shakespeare's unforgettable bassline which adds to the fresh, deep groove of this perfectly aged track. On the flip side, you'll find Delroy Wilson's infectious 'Live Good' alongside its dub version. The OG is a heavyweight cut with plenty of FX, echo and lo-fi sounds all making it an unforgettable jam. Essentially this is an absolute no-brainer for reggae and roots music lovers.

Review: The Cool Operator compiles 28 standout tracks from Delroy Wilson's illustrious career, showcasing the best of his hit singles produced by Bunny 'Striker' Lee, as well as essential cuts from Channel One and Federal. Classics like 'Better Must Come,' 'I'm Still Waiting,' and 'It's Shame' define reggae's golden age, immortalising Wilson's talent. The Clash even paid homage to him in 'White Man in Hammersmith Palais.' This collection is essential for any reggae enthusiast, offering a comprehensive overview of Wilson's enduring impact on the genre.

Review: Delroy Wilson's Live As One was originally only put out as part of a white label run on Waricka Records. It had a slightly different tack listing and was produced by Sir Collins. It's an archetypal mid-70s roots record before the rockers sound came into it and finds Delroy himself in powerful form. Some of the gems include come 'Into My World', 'Baby Love' and 'You Keep On Running' amongst others. This version is a great pressing with a new cover and makes up for the fact that an original is mega rare and pricey.
